Russet Bootlegger with Irvin "cream" color collar.
Sounds like you are ready for a Harley.I love my Ducati but could never really get completely used to it. It's the coolest thing ever to ride but too sporty. For me. I guess I'm just not cut out for it...
The ultimate dream leather jacket, a perfect, buttery A1, which I'd coveted for a decade, arrived in the spring of last year from the custom maker TWO blasted sizes too small and unwearable. After refusing to take it back, I ended up selling it on eBay for a 1/4 of its value. A damned heartbreak.
Right now, the only really sensible thing for me to own would be this:
I had a look at Eastmans more 'authentic'(compared to the older version)Ouch, that's gotta hurt. That's the real killer with buying anything at a distance and where you can't just try it on...
With VW's everyone says 'No Worries'. Have they had a lobotomy or something? I had a gutless wonder 1600 camper. It blew up on number 3 pot. "They often go on that one" my VW enthusiast mate told me. "I wish you had told me that and I would have bought a Ford Transit so I would not be 'Worried' about it blowing a piston on 3 pot" I rather crossly replied. I did fix it eventually and sold it at a small profit to fund something more interesting and reliable. like a new welding machine.My brother. used to have a VW thing. The fuel gauge was a stick we put down into the tank to see how much gas was left by the wet spot..
Hey, hands off, that's my ultimate dream jacket, it's my profile picture. Alright I took the pciture from a post you made but still, hands off!Russet Bootlegger with Irvin "cream" color collar. View attachment 61788
Dream leather jackets and motorized transportation - what a combo.
As for my dream jacket, I received mine on Tuesday. An Aero Long Half-belt in Cordovan CXL Steerhide which I introduced on a seperate thread. I try not to dream too big and am more than content with such a modest jacket considering what one could spend if money were no obstacle.
My dream car is something that is a bit uncommon compared to other choices in this thread but I've had a passion for a Citroen DS Pallas ever since I was a teen. This particular vehicle was designed way back in the mid-50's but still looks contemporary even today.

My new LHB in cordovan and this Citroen DS would make a great match!
